Cheers. We did have some "insider info" that claimed Khan was going to vacate, I guess it was bollocks.
I'm not saying that the fight isn't going to happen, but remember who the quotes in the article are coming from
I know its only Warren but it still easily beats "random hater off the Internet" which was yesterdays source of (and I use the term loosely) information.
Khan can outbox Maidana in this one, he's a bit wild and uncultured. Maidana's best shot is to rush Khan and get right in his face from the get go. If he can take Khan's shots for long enough he might be able to break him.
The reason this fight goes to purse bids is obvious. Khan's people make huge demand on Warren. Warren says no ... let the market decide what this fight is worth. Could be an eye opener for Khan. And a reality check. As for leaving Warren, that would be insane. His matches, Prescott excepted, have been masterful, and Warren didn't make that one. As Frank told Sky ... "What will be will be. But let's hope people don't suffer amnesia." We all remember Prescott, and the one big flaw - an inability to hold a shot - will always be there,
Glad he took it if he turned this down i would have doubts of him facing a puncher any time soon. Besides the Punching power i think Maidana is very well suited to Khans style and a Roach game plan.
Watched the Ortiz fight again lastnight. I'm going with Khan stopping Maidana around the 5th or 6th, Maidana will protest the stoppage but would've been dropped a few times. Thats my prediction
